Sick villagers not entering healing house

[Professor Feathers]

hAppening to anyone else? No one's actually getting healed anymore -- they just idle outside the healing house that is enabled and die eventually.

I'm having basically the same issue. Some of them do get cured however, but I think it's the natural base chance they get even without having a healer. I've noticed as well that those who go to the healer house for healing get stuck outside of it even after being cured, and they will either starve or freeze to death there. They do not leave once they've been cured and I have to keep watch and manually make them move, which will reset their actions and they will continue about their lives as normal.

Reloading the save seems to fix it, I think it messes up every time you either move it or turn it off. If you don't do either of those things it stays working but at least there's a way to fix it.

You can also, once in a while, pause the game, uncheck the automatic worker assignment, unassign everyone, unpause, wait a sec, pause again, check the box, resume. That screws you over with a single market income tick, but is faster than reloading.

That method worked for a various 'stuck' issues, havent tested it on the latest version though.

I had the same issue. Simply turning the building production off and on again worked for me. I noticed the whole building was actually not working when it happened as well: healer was not stocking it or anything. So turning it off/on fixed that. Not sure if the two 'stuck' problems are related though.

I've just had the same issue. Watched one villager stand outside the healer and froze to death in winter.
A second villager was starving to death and i turned the healer off and he went to a house and removed hunger. Definitely still a glitch with it.
